L&J Hotshot LLC is seeking government grants to enhance its operations by acquiring safer and more efficient equipment, specifically trucks and trailers, and to expand its workforce. The funding will be allocated for purchasing a semi and trailer this year, with plans to acquire two more semis, an excavator, and a skid steer in 2024, followed by a crane in 2026.
The applicant emphasizes her dedication, ambition, and industry knowledge, acknowledging the challenges of competing in a male-dominated field. She does not face current competition, as her business is based on leasing trucks and drivers. However, she aims to distinguish herself through organic growth, reporting over $100,000 in gross income in the latter half of last year. With a focus on the trucking, excavation, and agriculture sectors, she believes her expertise will drive the success of her future endeavors.
